Hollywood's Best-Ever Car Stunts

Car: 2004 Chevy Monte Carlo Body - NASCAR crashes are pretty amazing in real life, but this movie smash was something else. Racing hard to beat irritating French rival Jean Girard, America's number one NASCAR driver Ricky Bobby flips his car over and over and bits fly off before it finally comes to rest on its roof. Even more spectacular than the crash is Ricky Bobby's response as he tries to fight off a non-existent fire, strips down to his underwear and runs around shouting things like, "Tom Cruise, use your witchcraft to get the fire off me!"
